You know how much cleaner your teeth feel when you use an electric toothbrush instead of a few lame swipes with a regular brush? Picture that in a powerful oscillating cleaning brush that scrubs 60x per second! It'll make quick work of your filthy shower, food baked onto the stovetop, gross bathroom sinks...yeah, you get the idea.

via: Amazon
Look, I get it. I play fast and loose with the snooze button too, but "Becky with the messy bun" doesn't project a totally put-together image you want in a 9AM business meeting. Enter the Octocurl, which efficiently and painlessly curls your hair with no heat WHILE YOU SLEEP. Before bed, just wrap the baby-soft microfiber elastic strips (tentacles) around sections of your damp hair, then wake up in the morning and shake out your gorgeous loose curls, beach waves or spirals depending how tightly you wrapped. I'm no fortune teller but I predict many good hair days in your future!This Bacon Cooker Makes Cleanup A Breeze
Bacon is incredibly delicious but so messy to cook and clean up. This microwave bacon cooker eliminates greasy splatter - simply lay bacon in the tray, zap it for a few minutes, then let the strips crisp for a minute. The grease stays in the bottom of the container so you can pour it out - no need to use a forest's worth of paper towels to sop up the liquified fat (mmm). I'd even argue this cooking method makes bacon healthier since you're basically air-frying it!This Bluetooth Scale and Body Composition Analyzer Knows You Better Than You Do Yourself

Bonus - the design helps block ambient noise so you don't have to listen to the hardcore muscleheads grunting to let you know just how hard their workouts are!This Master Can And Bottle Opener Stays Gunk-Free
via: Amazon
Every time I use my regular old manual can opener, I'm disgusted by the black gunk collected in the cutting wheel that accumulates when it cuts into the top of the can and touches the food. It also happens to be impossible to totally de-grossify it, even with disinfecting cleaning wipes. That's why I'm enamored with this Master Opener that cuts the outside rim of the can and never touches food! It'll also effortlessly open bottles, pop and pull tops - that's why it's called the master opener!This Elegant Tipcup Teacup Is Your Moment Of Morning Zen

The glossy BPA-free cup comes in seven gorgeously modern colors - the cherry blossom and fresh lemon have me thinking spring!This One-Handed Soap Pump Keeps You Healthier
